Analysis and recommendation of HVAC modifications to replace central cooling plant. Five central plant options were evaluated for:

• First cost
• Annual energy/utility cost comparison
• Maintenance and service cost
• Cumulative 20-year life cycle cost

Other mechanical upgrades:

• DDC building automation system
• Fan powered VAV boxes to replace the existing dual duct boxes
• Sheet metal duct changes to reduce noise and pressure drop improving overall system performance
• Renovating existing 140,000 CFM air handlers in place with new coils and VFD drives versus replacing systems with new rooftop air handlers and packaged controls
• 24-hour, 7-day supplemental cooling loop for data closets and computer rooms
• Team position: prime A/E for study and cost evaluation
